After quickly realising she had a love for dance at age two, Siwa began taking classes in Tap, Jazz, Hip Hop and Ballet.

Nickelodeon has a successful relationship with the teen sensation, regularly collaborating on an extensive global consumer product range across categories including apparel, accessories, home, toys, party and publishing.

On air, Siwa can next be seen in Nickelodeon’s Sizzling Summer Camp Special which premieres on Friday 21st July at 5:00pm on Nick UK & Eire. This variety special, interspersed with comedy sketches and musical numbers, follows fan-favourite Nickelodeon stars as they celebrate summer at a sleepaway camp.
